Condition 1 is fine when you have full control of the pistol. You know exactly where it's at and how it's oriented. You aquire the grip, bring it up on target, flip off the safety as you aquire the trigger and fire.
When the pistol is not in your control then it is easy for the safety to flip off and when you aquire the grip depressing the grip saftey the gun is ready to fire even though you aren't. I keep mine at condition 2 and have to cock the pistol after I have aquired the grip for my own personal satisfaction. I see that this is not for everyone, but then it works perfectly fine for me and that's all that matters.
